Pros

- Great pay for the work/qualifications needed - Fast promotion opportunities... for a time - Decent work/life balance; schedules are pretty consistent, opportunities to take holidays off

Cons

- Work culture - cut-throat, toxic, and very political - Unreasonable expectations, depending on the managers - Difficult to climb out of this role within the company itself unless you apply for a different department (favoritism exists) - Silo-ed departments so difficult to network outside of your department unless you make intentional efforts - Little support from upper management - Environment driven by numbers and corrective action

Pros

Organized in the hiring and training process

Cons

They cared more about output and getting results than the understanding of all the knowledge they cram into us. In addition, we were in training/orientation with mostly supervisor candidates. Meaning, first, there were so many people that did things in vastly different ways which created confusion on expectations and overall objectives of the job. Secondly, it meant that those candidates were finding their footing and being evaluated just as harshly (if not more) than new hires, creating pressure that boiled over to almost every individual on a team.
